  1. Re:Skype's lifespan? by Technician · · Score: 1 · on FTC Approves Microsoft's Takeover of Skype

    SIP is already a competing technology. Most SIP to SIP phone calls are free just like Skype to Skype. SIP to PTSN has fees just like Skype in and Skype out.

    This page has a full range of SIP clients for the Mac.

    My bad, didn't read the subject line. I don't know if such an app exists on the store and I haven't bothered to look for one. A simple Google search indicates that if you jailbreak your iPhone you can get a usenet newsreader: iNewsGroup.

    OS X really sucks for kids as my boss has just discovered. He wanted to run some spyware software to monitor his 13 year old daughter. There are some child monitoring solutions out for Mac OS X. First of all Leopard will have some nifty integrated features for child safety. For some solutions for Mac OS X 10.0 to 10.4 take a look here.

    There are also a lot of tools available in the command-line environment, as well as open source software that can be compiled for Mac OS X. I'll leave it to the user to hunt them down because I haven't used any of them for monitoring.

    The package I like to use is QCad:

    Even though it's source is GPLed, I think there is a fee for commercial use ($28 which is pretty much free)

    Give it a try...

  7. Re:Why are we having this conversation? by WirelessFreak · · Score: 1 · on Installing Linux On The New Apple iBook
    I've recently started a fixed wireless ISP and was torn between running Yellow Dog Linux and OS X. The reason why I planned on running YDL is because of the two 8600/300's I'm turning into mail and web servers along with a 7500/180 I'm planning on using for billing and a bit of DNS services. This was before I heard about Ryan Rempel's Unsupported UtilityX.

    Now, I'm running BIND, Apache and am getting ready to configure CommuniGate Pro on the 8600's. I can SSH into the boxes and do everything I need to do, remotely, via the command line. It's possible to run VNC on Mac OS X via an X-Windows interface.

    I honestly think OS X provides an excellent GUI front-end for those who aren't familiar or comfortable with a command-line interface while providing the power of command-line for those are prefer it.

    Just my two cents. ;-)

  8. useless integral tools of mac os. by saintlupus · · Score: 2 · on Dumping LinuxPPC For MacOS X?

    there isn't even a telnet client.

    tell me about it... i do tech support for dsl, and it doesn't help that there's no damned _ping_ that comes with the unit. amazing how a machine built for networking since the beginning has none of the tools you'd expect.

    incidentally, for telnet, i'd suggest either bettertelnet or nifty telnet ssh, both of which are available at pure mac. good little freeware apps.

  9. Obscure Software available for the Mac by etceteral · · Score: 2 · on Power Up That iMac

    One of the cool things about the Mac Shareware community is that there's *tons* of stuff out there that a lot of people don't know about. (Try PureMac.com).

    IP masquarading takes about 2 minutes to set up with a cool utility called IPNetRouter avaiable from Sustworks for pretty cheap. (Shareware).

    There's a solution for pretty much everything out there on the Mac, if you just know where to look.

    (Also, do a search for Virtual on the pure-mac site... you'll find virtual desktops, too!)
